The following rules apply throughout this Service Manual:1. Each chapter contains sections explaining the purpose of specific functions and
the relationship between electrical and mechanical systems with reference to thetiming of operation.
In the diagrams, represents the path of mechanical drive where a sig-nal name accompanies the symbol , the arrow indicates the direction of theelectric signal.
The expression "turn on the power" means flipping on the power switch, closingthe front door, and closing the delivery unit door, which results in supplying themachine with power.
2. In the digital circuits, '1' is used to indicate that the voltage level of a given signalis "High," while '0' is used to indicate "Low." (The voltage value, however, differsfrom circuit to circuit.)
In practically all cases, the internal mechanisms of a microprocessor cannot bechecked in the field. Therefore, the operations of the microprocessors used in themachines are not discussed: they are explained in terms of from sensors to theinput of the DC controller PCB and from the output of the DC controller PCB to the loads.
Note:The descriptions in this Service Manual are subject to change without notice forproduct improvement or other purposes, and major changes will be communicatedin the form of Service Information bulletins.All service persons are expected to have a good understanding of the contents ofthis Service Manual and all relevant Service Information bulletins and be able toidentify and isolate faults in the machine.

I. FEATURES1. Direct charging.
The charging roller directly charges paper, significantly reducing ozone emission.
2. Auto power-off.The copier shuts off automatically when left alone for about 5 minutes after the last
copy operation.
3. Quick start.The copier’s wait time is 0 second, always ready for quick copying work.
4. Cartridge type.The core of the copier (photosensitive drum, toner case, charging roller, developing
assembly, and cleaning assembly) is integrated into a single cartridge. The user needno more than replace the cartridge and perform simple cleaning to maintain the copierin top condition.
5. Variety of copy effects.In addition to black toner, the user has a choice of several colors. Taking advantage
of overlay copying, various copy effects may be obtained through mere replacement ofthe cartridge.
6. Compact and light.The copier is compact and light, providing good portability. It can easily substitute
as a personal copier.
7. Multifeeding (PC420/430/FC220).A stack of copy paper may be placed on the pick-up tray. A press on the Copy Start
key is all it takes to generate multiple copies.

D. Main Motor Control Circuit1. Outline
Figure 2-101D shows the circuit that controls the main motor (M1), and the circuithas the following functions:
a. turns the main motor ON and OFF.b. controls the main motor speed (constant)
The main motor (M1) is a DC motor and is equipped with a motor rotation sensor(Q901) to serve as a clock pulse generator. Clock pulses (MMCLK) corresponding tothe revolution of the motor are generated while the motor is rotating. The speed controlcircuit controls the speed of the motor with reference to these clock pulses.
2. OperationThe drive circuit on the DC controller/DC power supply PCB causes the main motor
drive command (MMD) to go ‘0’ in response to instructions from the microprocessor,thereby causing the main motor to rotate at a specific speed.
3. Overcurrent SensorWhen the overcurrent sensor circuit detects an overload in the main motor (M1), the
speed controller circuit exerts control so that the rotation of the motor is slowed down.If the revolution of the main motor falls below a specific revolution, however, an error
associated with ‘E2’ can occur.

2. Controlling the Copyboard DriveThe copyboard is controlled for forward, reverse, and stop operations by the
copyboard drive solenoid (SL2) and forward/ reverse switching mechanism.A photosensor (Q902) is provided on the copyboard drive assembly to monitor the
position of the copyboard; as the copyboard moves, the cam found under the copyboardpushes the copyboard sensor lever to turn the photosensor ON or OFF.
‘E2’ is displayed if the copyboard fails to complete its movement within a specificperiod of time.
In response to the signal from Q902, the DC controller controls the timing for papertransport and the movement (forward, reverse, stop) of the copyboard; see Table 3-101B.

3. Mechanism of Copyboard Drive AssemblyThe forward gear and reverse gear are rotating in the direction of the arrow (Figure
103B) while the main motor (M1) is operating.The forward/reverse switching mechanism engages with either the forward gear or
the reverse gear depending on the orientation of the copyboard position sensor leverand the state (ON/OFF) of the copyboard drive solenoid (SL2) operated by the startposition cam or reversal cam; when not engaged, the mechanism is said to be free, andthe copyboard can be moved by hand.
The above mechanism is used to move the copyboard forward and reverse or tostop it.

a. Stopping the CopyboardCausing the copyboard drive solenoid (SL2) to go OFF frees both forward and
reverse gears so that the copyboard remains stationary.At the time, the copyboard may be moved to the right or left by hand.
b. Moving the Copyboard in ReverseWhen SL2 goes ON while the main motor is operating, the forward/reverse
switching mechanism engages with the reverse gear, and the reverse gear rotates inthe direction of the arrow, causing the copyboard to move in reverse.
The copyboard moves in reverse about two times as fast as when it moves forwardowing to the difference in the gear ratio.

c. Moving the Copyboard ForwardWhen the copyboard has moved in reverse and is positioned as shown in Figure 3-
105B, the start position cam pushes down the copyboard position sensor lever. WhenSL2 goes ON in this position, the forward/reverse switching mechanism moves to theposition shown in the figure, causing the forward/reverse switching mechanism toengage with the forward gear; as a result, the forward gear rotates in the direction of thearrow, moving the copyboard forward.

II. Controlling the Scanning LampA. Outline
Figure 3-201A shows the circuit that controls the scanning lamp (fuse lamp), and thecircuit has the following functions:
• Turns the scanning lamp ON and OFF.• Controls the intensity of the scanning lamp.
An intensity sensor (PD601) is provided to ensure that the original will be illuminatedafter the intensity of the scanning lamp has stabilized.
The intensity of the scanning lamp is checked by the lamp intensity detection signal(LID) to make sure that the intensity has reached the specified value.
In addition, a rush current protection circuit is provided to prevent rush currentoccurring when the lamp turns on.

B. Operations1. Turning the Scanning Lamp ON and OFF
• Square waves of the LAPWM command corresponding to the output of the amplifier circuit are generated to the lamp driver circuit. (Q143 ON)
Current flows into the filament of the lamp, causing the fluorescent lamp to goON at high frequency.
2. Controlling the Intensity of the Scanning Lamp• If the intensity of the lamp is low when the lamp goes ON,
Initial power of the intensity sensor PD601 is low.
Output voltage of the amplifier circuit is high.
Duty ratio (H) of the output of the microprocessor (LAPWM command) grows high.
Current flowing to the lamp increases.
• If the intensity of the lamp is high when the lamp goes ON,
Initial power of the intensity sensor PD601 is high.
Output voltage of the amplifier circuit is low.
Duty ratio (H) of the output of the microprocessor (LAPWM command) grows low.
Current flowing to the lamp decreases.
• If the microprocessor finds out that the scanning lamp has remained on for 2 minat such times as not prescribed, it activates the self diagnostic mechanism; theresults are indicated by ‘E6’ for the PC420/430/FC220 and ‘JAM’ for thePC400/FC200.
C. Controlling the Intensity of the Scanning Lamp (VR604)You must adjust the intensity of the lamp if you have replaced the scanning lampunit, intensity sensor or control panel PCB; see p.10-6.
Note:You must adjust the AE mechanism after adjusting the intensity.(PC420/430/FC220)

• Turns the DC bias ON and OFF.• Turns the AC bias ON and OFF.• Controls the DC bias voltage
(constant).• Controls the AC bias current
(constant).
A DC bias (-625 V/-230 V) and an AC bias are applied to the primary charging rollerto maintain the surface potential of the photosensitive drum uniform.
During document exposure (-625 V) and non-exposure periods (-230 V) DC bias isswitched by the DC bias high output command (HVPHO).
The DC bias and AC bias are turned ON and OFF by the DC bias ON command(HVPDC) and AC bias ON command (HVPAC), respectively.
Reference:Unless the document is being illuminated, the DC bias is switched to -230V toprevent adhesion of toner on the photosensitive drum.

D. Controlling Developing Bias1. Outline
Both AC bias and DC bias are applied to the developing cylinder during copyingoperation.
When the photosensitive drum is rotating except during development, about -400 Vis applied to the developing cylinder regardless of the settings made by the density control dial/lever, thereby preventing adhesion of excess toner on the surface of the photosensitive drum.
The copier controls the copy density by varying the voltage of the DC component ofthe developing bias (-120 to -560 V) based on the following:
• Setting made by the density control dial/lever (manual density control).• Output of the AE sensor (automatic density control; PC420/430/FC220).• Setting made by the density correction switch (SW606; PC420/430/FC220).
The density correction switch (SW606) on the control panel PCB allows three settings by the user. Advise the user to change the setting if the copies tend to be foggybecause of shifts in the sensitivity of the photosensitive drum. SW606 is valid for manual density control as well.
Figure 4-101D,102D shows the changes in the DC component of the developingbias caused by the density control dial/lever in manual density control mode; Figure 4-103D, on the other hand, shows changes in the DC component of the developing biascaused by different document densities in automatic density adjustment mode (AE).
Note:The copier does not change the developing bias between black toner and colortoner. This is because the color toner used by the copier is a single-componentagent, which allows the use of the same developing bias as for the black toner fordevelopment.

(T104) and sends it to the developing cylinder.
b. Turning the DC Bias ON and OFF and Controlling the Voltage LevelThe DC bias is turned ON and OFF by the DC bias control command (DCBPWM).The microprocessor checks the DC voltage when the DC bias is ON so as to keep it
to the specified voltage.

E. Transfer Charging Control Circuit1. Outline
Figure 4-101E shows the circuit that controls transfer charging, and the circuit hasthe following functions:
• Controls the constant current in measurement mode.• Controls the constant voltage of the DC bias.• Switches the polarities of the DC bias (cleaning mode).
The internal resistance of the transfer corona roller tends to vary from one roller toanother or because of changes in the environment.
The copier sends constant current to the transfer charging roller so that themicroprocessor can check the changes in terms of voltage (measurement mode).
Based on the measured voltage, the microprocessor corrects the DC bias.Further, the copier is equipped with a cleaning mechanism (cleaning mode) that
prevents adhesion of toner to the transfer charging roller.In cleaning mode while the drum is rotating, except during transfer, a DC bias is
applied to the transfer charging roller with a reversed polarity, thereby returning thetoner to the photosensitive drum.

F. Document Density Measurement (AE; PC420/430/FC220)1. Outline
The copier is equipped with an automatic density control (AE) mechanism thatcontrols the DC component of the developing bias. The copier’s AE mechanism doesnot execute an AE scan, but instead measures the document density during imageexposure.2. Operations
Document measurement is started while the copyboard is moving forward; i.e.,when the leading edge of the document begins to be exposed (copyboard positionsensor Q902 goes OFF).
At the time, the photodiode (PD602) checks the reflected light.The output of the photodiode (PD602) is amplified, and sent to the microprocessor
as AE signals.

a. Drum Cover ShutterThe photosensitive drum is susceptible to light; if exposed to strong light, it will
develop residual memory, causing white spots or black lines on the copies. To avoidsuch problems, you must not open the drum cover shutter unless it is absolutelynecessary. The drum cover shutter is designed to open when the cartridge is insertedinto the copier and the copier’s top unit is closed.
b. Light-Blocking ShutterThe absence of a cartridge inside the copier allows light to enter the inside of the
copier from the opening created for exposure. The light-blocking shutter is provided toprotect the photosensitive drum against intrusion of such light.

III.MECHANICAL SYSTEM
Here, the copier is discussed in terms of its mechanical characteristics andoperation and how to disassemble and assemble it.
Be sure to observe the following for disassembly/assembly work:
1. Disconnect the power cord for safety before disassembly or reassemblywork.
2. Unless otherwise noted, reassembly is the reverse of disassembly.3. Group the screws by type (length and diameter) and location.4. One of the mounting screws used on the rear cover is provided with a washer to
protect against static electricity. Be sure to keep the washer with the screw whenmounting the cover.
5. The fixing screw for the grounding wire and varistors is fitted with a washer toensure electric continuity; be sure to use the washer for reassembly.
6. If possible, avoid operating the machine with any of its parts removed.

A. Photosensitive Drum1. Cleaning the Drum
Caution:As a rule, do not touch or clean the photosensitive drum.
1) Open the top cover, and take out the cartridge.2) Put the cartridge upside down, and open the drum shutter.3) Clean the surface of the drum using a flannel cloth coated with toner.
Caution:1. You must rotate the drum in the direction it rotates for making copies;
otherwise, the leaf spring used to apply developing biases to the developingcylinder may cause faulty contact.
2. Use a flannel cloth; do not use paper, lint-free or otherwise.3. Work quickly to protect the drum from light.
Reference:The drum would recover to more or less its normal condition if left alone for fiveminutes in a dark place after exposure to an intensity of 1500 lux (about 5 minutesunder general lighting). However, you must try to avoid any exposure at all cost.(The rays of the sun have intensities ranging between about 10000 and 30000 lux.)

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM
5-1
I. OUTLINEThe pick-up roller starts to rotate when the Copy Start key is pressed in the case of
the PC420/430/FC220 and when paper is inserted, i.e., in response to the activation ofthe pick-up sensor (Q131), in the case of the PC400/FC200.
The copy paper is controlled by the registration roller so that its leading edgematches that of the image on the photosensitive drum; the paper is then moved to thetransfer, separation, and fixing assemblies before it reaches the copy tray.
The delivery of copy paper is monitored by the delivery sensor (Q801); if copy paperfails to reach or move past the sensor, the copier identifies the condition as a jam andflashes ‘Jam’ on the control panel.

II. CONTROLLING THE PICK-UP ROLLERA. PC420/430/FC220
The pick-up roller is controlled by a spring clutch, control ring, and pick-up solenoid(SL1).
When the pick-up solenoid goes ON, the claw moves away from the control ring,allowing the drive from the main motor (M1) to be transmitted, causing the pick-up rollerto make a single rotation.
At the time, copy paper is picked up and butted against the registration roller,forming an arch.

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM
IV. CHECKING FOR JAMSThe copier has a pick-up sensor (Q131) and a delivery sensor (Q801) to check if the
paper is moving properly inside it.Jams are identified by the presence of paper in the pick-up or delivery assembly at
such times as preprogrammed in the microprocessor.When the microprocessor identifies a jam, it immediately causes the main motor to
go OFF and indicates the presence of a jam.The microprocessor identifies the following conditions as jams.
A. Delivery Delay JamThe copy paper does not reach the delivery sensor within a specific period of time.

I. OUTLINE OF OPERATIONSA. Outline
The pressure roller in the fixing assembly is driven by the main motor (M1).The rotation of the pressure roller causes the fixing film to rotate.Some sections of the underside of the fixing film is heated by the fixing heater.The temperature of the fixing heater is monitored by the thermistor (TH1), and the
readings are sent to the microprocessor on the DC controller/DC power supply circuit inthe form of the fixing heater temperature sensor signal (TH1).
Based on the signal, the microprocessor of the DC controller/DC power supplycircuit controls the temperature of the fixing heater by the fixing heater drive command(HTRD).

CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM

B. Controlling the Fixing Heater TemperatureThe target temperature for the fixing heater is controlled to four settings (155°, 165°,
175°, 185°C) by the microprocessor based on the following conditions:
a. Temperature of the fixing heater at time of power-on (185°C if 90°C or less; 165°C ifotherwise)
b. Temperature of the fixing heater at time of copy-start (185°C if 90°C or less; asneeded to suit the number of copies made if otherwise)
c. Number of copies made:185°C if copy175°C if for 2 to 4 copies165°C if for 5 to 15 copies185°C if for 16 copies or more
C. Controlling the Supply Power to the Fixing HeaterThe temperature of the fixing heater (H1) is controlled by controlling the power
supplied to the fixing heater.The power to the fixing heater is controlled by a phase power control method.The microprocessor on the DC controller/DC power supply circuit takes on the zero-
cross signal (ZXDP) from the zero-cross signal generator circuit as a sync signal toidentify the AC input voltage in relation to the reference voltage signal (VPEAK) from thereference voltage sensor circuit.
Using the reading, the microprocessor controls the fixing heater drive command(HTRD) power to attain the specific target temperature for the fixing heater, in otherwords exerting phase control on the supply power to the fixing heater.
Further, ‘E9’ is indicated on the control panel if the zero cross signal (ZXDP) fallsbelow a specific value because of an error in the frequency of the power supply.

D. Protection MechanismsThe copier is equipped with the following protection mechanisms to prevent
malfunction of the fixing heater.1. The microprocessor monitors the voltage of TH1, and displays ‘E0’
(PC420/430/FC220)/ ‘Jam’ (PC400/FC200) and turns the power off upon detec-tion of any of the following conditions:i. The temperature of the fixing heater does not reach 80°C 2.5 sec. after copying
starts.ii. The temperature of the fixing heater does not reach 150°C within 7.5 sec. after
copying starts.iii. The temperature of the fixing heater drops to 135°C or less after it has reached
150°C.iv. The temperature of the fixing heater rises in excess of 215°C.v.The maximum power (400 W) is detected for 5 sec. continuously after the temper-
ature of the fixing heater has reached 150°C.
2. TH1 registers 234°C as the temperature of the fixing heater; as a result, the fix-ing heater error temperature detection circuit causes RELAYD to go ‘0’ andthe relay (RL101) to go OFF, thereby cutting the power to the fixing heater.
3. The thermal fuse (FU2) blows after it has reached 228°C and a specific timehas passed to cut off the power to the fixing heater.

B. Power Supply PCBThe copier’s power supply is a composite power supply in which one main trans-
former (T106) supplies DC power as well as power for high voltage and scanning lamp.AC power is supplied to the DC power supply when the power switch and door
switch are turned ON.The DC power supply generates +24 V and +5 V.For auto power-off, the microprocessor causes the relay (RL101) to go OFF, thus
cutting power supply.The copier is equipped with a sub power supply which provides the microprocessor
with +5VDCL power for about 5 minutes after a condition associated ‘E0’ occurs; duringthis period, the copier is prevented from going ON to prevent damage by overheatingthe fixing heater.
Note:The tolerances for the DC power supply are as follows:• +24VR ± 5%• +24 VU : +22 V to +46 V• +5 VL ± 2%• +5 V ± 10%
C. Protection Mechanism for Power Supply CircuitThe DC power supply circuit’s AC power supply input is equipped with a fuse. The
fuse blows if an overcurrent flows because of a short circuit in the 24V power, thus shut-ting out the output from the AC power supply circuit. If this happens, disconnect thecopier’s power cord, correct the cause of the problem, and replace the fuse.
If the microprocessor detects an error on the AC or 24VDC line of the main trans-former (T106), it causes the relay to go OFF, thus cutting the power output. If this hap-pens, remove the cause and switch the copier ON to reset.

IV. NOTES ABOUT CARTRIDGEThe cartridge is affected by the environment, regardless of whether it is sealed or
unsealed and installed in the machine or otherwise. Although the properties of thecartridge change over time independent of how many copies have been made, thedegree of care taken for the cartridge affects how long it may remain stable.
A. Storing Sealed CartridgesWhen storing the cartridge in a warehouse or workshop, make sure the place is
controlled to the specifications shown in Table 9-401A.
a. Avoid direct rays of the sun.b. Avoid areas subjected to appreciable vibration.c. Do not drop or subject it to impact.

B. Storing and Handling Unsealed CartridgesThe photosensitive medium is an organic photoconductor (OPC), which is extremely
susceptible to light. Since the cartridge also contains toner, you must be extra carefulwhen storing or handling the cartridge. Make sure the user is aware of this fact and willhandle the cartridge with care.
1. Storing Unsealed Cartridgesa. Avoid areas subjected to strong rays of the sun. Do not keep it in a car even in a
protective box; the inside may become extremely hot.b. Avoid areas of high or low temperature/ humidity and areas where these factors
tend to change rapidly (for example, near air conditioners or heaters).c. Avoid areas where dust, ammonium gas, or gases from organic solvents tend to
accumulate.d. Keep the cartridge in a place 40°C/104°F or less.
2. Handling the Cartridgea. When setting the cartridge to the copier or if the toner starts to run short, hold the
cartridge horizontally as shown in Figure 9-401B, and rotate it in both directionsabout 90° to even out the toner inside it. Do not shake the cartridge or hold it in adifferent way; otherwise, toner may leak out the cartridge.

c. Do not force open the shutter for the photosensitive drum cover found at the bottomof the cartridge; do not touch the surface of the photosensitive drum.
Caution:If the surface of the photosensitive drum has become soiled, wipe it using a flannelcloth coated with toner. Do not dry wipe it or use solvent.
d. Do not disassemble the cartridge.e. Do not subject the cartridge to vibration or impact; in particular, do not force down
the photosensitive drum from above the shutter for the drum cover.f. Keep the cartridge out of reach of children.g. The photosensitive drum is susceptible to light and, therefore, equipped with a light-
blocking shutter; nevertheless, exposure to light for a long time can affect the drum,resulting in copies with white spots or vertical lines. Leave the copier alone forsome time for possible recovery; to avoid residual memory, which results in whitespots or vertical lines, however, keep the following in mind.
Caution:Work quickly when removing jams or replacing cartridges.When the cartridge must be removed for work, be sure to put the cartridge in itsstorage box or cover it; do not leave it without protective measures once it is out-side the copier.
h. Advise the user to send all used cartridge to the address given and according to theinstructions in the User's Guide.
Caution:Do not subject any used cartridge to fire, or it may burst or explode. If a used car-tridge must be dealt with at the site, make sure it is disposed of as incombustiblewaste.
Reference:The drum would recover to more or less its normal condition if left alone for fiveminutes in a dark place after exposure to an intensity of 1500 lux (about 5 minutesunder general lighting). However, you must try to avoid any exposure. (The raysof the sun have intensities ranging between about 10000 and 30000 lux.)

CHAPTER 10 TROUBLESHOOTING
B. Electrical
Notes:If you have replaced the scanning lamp unit, intensity sensor, AE sensor, or controlpanel PCB, you must adjust the three variable resistors on the control panel PCB(one, if PC400/FC200); you must, however, adjust them in the order of VR604,VR602, and VR603 (from intensity to AE).
1. Adjusting the Intensity (VR604)a. After Replacing the Control Panel PCB Only1) Disconnect the power plug, and detach the faulty control panel PCB.2) Set the meter to the ‘200 k ’ range, and measure C between the terminal of VR604
and the terminal of R614 on the detached control panel PCB; see Figure 10-201B.3) Likewise, measure C between the terminal of VR604 and the terminal of R614 on
the new control PCB; then, turn VR604 so that the reading is the same as themeasurement taken in step 2).
4) In the case of the PC420/430/FC220, adjust VR602 (A between terminals of VR602and JP607) and VR603 (Between terminals of VR603 and JP621); see Figure 10-201B.
5) Attach the new control panel PCB to the copier.

(Before Adjustment)• If the scanning lamp has blackened, replace it.• Clean the scanning system (lens array, lamp reflector, lamp).
1) Set the cartridge to the copier.2) De-select AE, and set the copy density control lever/dial to the center.3) Set the density correction switch (SW606) to the center (PC420/430/FC220).4) Set the Test Sheet (NA3/NB3/NA2), and make a copy.5) Check if the copy is free of fogging, and gray scale No. 9 (No. 10, if NB3) is some-
what visible.
• If too dark,Turn VR604 on the control panel PCB clockwise slightly to increase the intensity.
• If too light,Turn VR604 counterclockwise slightly to decrease the intensity.
6) Repeat steps 4) and 5) until the density is optimum.
Notes:After adjusting the intensity, be sure to adjust the AE mechanism(PC420/430/FC220).

III. IMAGE TROUBLESHOOTINGA. Making Initial Checks1. Site Environment
a. The voltage of the power source must be within the specifications.b. Avoid areas subjected to dust or high temperature/humidity (near water faucets,
water boilers, humidifiers) and areas near open fires.c. Avoid areas subjected to ammonium gas.d. Avoid direct rays of the sun; otherwise, provide curtains.e. Make sure the site is well ventilated.f. Make sure the floor is level.Check the site to see if it meets the above requirements.
2. Checking the DocumentsYou must first check to see if a particular problem may not be due to the document
used.a. The copy density reading should be 5.5 ±1.5 (black)/4.5 ±1.5 (color).b. Some backgrounds, i.e., yellow shades, tend to produce copies with poor
contrast.c. Diazo copies or translucent documents tend to produce copies that may be
mistaken for foggy copies.d. Documents prepared in light pencil tend to produce copies that may be mistaken
for light copies.

CHAPTER 10 TROUBLESHOOTING
9. OthersIn winter, moving a machine from a cold storage room to a warm site can cause
condensation inside the machine, leading to various problems.
a. Condensation on the scanning system (glass, lens array, reflecting plate) causesdark images.
b. When too cold, the photosensitive drum assumes a high electrical resistance,resulting in poor contrast.
c. Condensation in the pick-up/feeding assembly can cause faulty paper transport.d. Condensation in the lower roller of the manual pick-up mechanism decreases
friction, leading to pick-up failure.e. Condensation on the copyboard hinders its smooth movement.When condensation is noted, dry wipe the parts.The same holds true of the cartridge. After having moved the cartridge from a cold
to warm room, leave it alone for about one to two hours before unpacking it.

CHAPTER 10 TROUBLESHOOTING
VII. SELF DIAGNOSISThe copier’s microprocessor on the DC controller/DC power supply PCB is
equipped with a self diagnostic mechanism that checks the condition of the machine;when the mechanism detects an error, it indicates an error code on the copy countdisplay.
(The PC400/FC200 does not have a copy count display; it indicates an errorcondition by flashing the Jam indicator.)
‘E6’ is represented by alternating
Note:If an error associated with ‘E0’ is detected, ‘ ’ is displayed (PC420/430/FC220) orthe Jam indicator (PC400/FC200) remains ON for about 0.5 sec.; thereafter, thepower goes out.
Code Cause Description
• Thermistor (TH1; faulty)• Fixing heater (H1; faulty)• DC controller/DC power supply (faulty)
• The temperature of the fixing heater is 215°C or more.
• The temperature of the fixing heater does not reach 80°C within 2.5 sec. after copying operation has started.
• The temperature of the fixing heater lowers below 135°C after it has reached 150°C.
• The temperature of the fixing heater does not reach 150°C within 7.5 sec. after copying operation has started.
• The maximum supply power is detected for about 5 sec. after the temperature of the fixing heater has reached 150°C.

CHAPTER 10 TROUBLESHOOTING
10-41
Note:1. The copier does not use code ‘E1’, ‘E3’, ‘E4’, or ‘E5’.2. After self diagnosis has gone ON, the copier may be reset by switching it OFF
and then ON.In the case of ‘E0’, however, the power is automatically turned OFF. To reset,disconnect the power plug once, open the upper cover, or wait about 5 minuteswithout any operation; during the period, the microprocessor remains poweredand retains ‘E0’.This consideration is to prevent the user from resetting the machine easilywhen the thermistor may have blown; otherwise, the fixing heater wouldbecome overheated, damaging parts near it.
3. Activation of self diagnosis forces the fixing heater (H1) and main motor (M1)OFF.
Code Cause Description
• Copyboard drive assembly (faulty operation)• Copyboard drive solenoid (SL2; faulty)• Copyboard position sensor PCB (Q902; faulty)• DC controller/DC power supply PCB (faulty)
• The copyboard position sensor (Q902) goes ON when copying operation starts.
• The copyboard position sensor (Q902) is ON 0.8 sec. after copying operation has started.
• The copyboard position sensor (Q902) does not go ON within 5.5 sec. after copying operation has started.
• The copyboard does not reach the start position within a specific period of time, or it moves past the start position.
• The copyboard position sensor (Q902) is ON 1.5 sec. after the copyboard has started moving forward from the start position.
• The copyboard position sensor (Q902) does not go ON 10.4 sec. after the copyboard has started moving forward from the start position.
• The copyboard position sensor (Q902) does not go ON 1.2 sec. or 4.7 sec. after the copyboard has started moving in reverse from the reversal position.
• Control panel PCB (faulty)• DC controller/DC power supply PCB
(faulty)
• The scanning lamp has remained for 2 sec. continuously at such times as not prescribed.
• Power supply frequency (error) • The power supply frequency is higher than specified.
